jyzackoh Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hi guys,I was just thinking about how to use gymnastics training to condition myself. I'm in the army and soon I will have men under me and I would like to use gymnastics training to train them up as well.My current level is such:12pullups30odd pushupsL-sit 6sec (haven't been doing it for a long time)Tuck Planche 5secHow should I train to get myself into the condition Coach was in as he said in his article: Gymnastics as Conditioning - The Journey? I do want to train frequently but do not wanna overtrain! Not sure how to structure the workouts. I do not understand the part abt building a workout in BtGB.I feel its better to follow a proven routine!Thanks A Lot,Zack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathias Flækøy Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Why don't you just follow the WODs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyzackoh Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hi Hannibal,Thanks for your reply! So do I "flip" the BtGB book and find an easier progression and do the prescribed number of reps? Because some of the exercises are too hard for me!Thanks Much!Zack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GymRat15 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I can attest to following the WOD's. If you do those then you'll be in the shape you need to be in order to train others! Good luck and I would be interested in knowing how things went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleister Ruffer Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hi Hannibal,Thanks for your reply!

Because some of the exercises are too hard for me!Thanks Much!ZackWhen you first start out, the scaling can be a bit confusing as the book doesn't cover it all.I'd suggest starting the WOD's a week behind so you can go through the posts and see how everybody else scaled them.
